Toyota Safety System?

Toyota Safety System?
Is the current suite of safety features in the Lexus NX, the same as the Toyota Safety System in the 2017's? I'm a bit confused about the level and function of the safety features in our vehicles.
Any guidance? Thanks!

The NX still unfortunately doesn't have the option or come standard with the Lexus Safety System+ yet. So people still need to pay for them in pricey optional packages. I'm assuming Lexus IS waiting to include it in the refresh for the 2018 or 2019MY. The DRCC in the 2017 NX works similar to the newer system in Toyota, in that it functions from 0-110 MPH. 2015-2016 NX have the old DRCC that only functions from 25-110 MPH
Toyota Safety System:
TSS will be offered in the form of two packages: Toyota Safety Sense™ C (TSS-C) 9 for compact vehicles and Toyota Safety Sense™ P (TSS-P) 9 for midsize and large vehicles.
Toyota Safety Sense™ C 9 features three proprietary active safety technologies, and combines a camera and laser for outstanding performance and reliability. The package can help mitigate or prevent collisions in a wide range of vehicle speeds under certain conditions.
• Pre-Collision System (PCS) 10 — Vehicle Detection
• Lane Departure Alert (LDA) 6
• Automatic High Beams (AHB) 8
Toyota Safety Sense™ P 9 combines an in-vehicle camera and front-grille-mounted, millimeter-wave radar for enhanced performance and more functionality.
• Pre-Collision System 10 with Pedestrian Detection function 7 (PCS w/PD) —Vehicle Detection & Pedestrian Detection
• Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist function (LDA w/SA) 11 (EPS-equipped vehicles)
• Automatic High Beams (AHB) 8
• Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC)
-DRCC 12 is designed to function at speeds of approximately 25 to 110 mph. However, vehicle speed must be above approximately 28 mph to initiate DRCC, as that is the lowest set speed.
-Starting with certain 2016 Prius models, select Toyota vehicles may also feature the new Full-Speed Range DRCC, 12 which is designed to also work at speeds below 25 mph. Full-Speed Range DRCC 12 may enable low-speed following, speed matching, stopping and acceleration/deceleration to a preceding vehicle. Full-Speed Range DRCC 12 is designed to function at speeds between approximately 0 to 110 mph and is intended for highway use.
INFO FOR US MARKET.

I looked at the Canada brochure for the NX...seems like F-sport Series 3 has all of the safety stuff bundled in it.
